Railway   





so all of a sudden I'm facing a 

raging river that passed me by 

do I turn around, do I turn my eye 

to the sun in the apex of the high noon 

I'm on a flatbed yellow pick up 

underneath a half moon 

 

so cut me some slack jack and jump in 

the back if you can't handle the candle 

they you can't handle the wax 

you're just going to get sacked 

it's as simple as that 

 

but before I know it 

I'm going down this itty bitty river in 

a boat a little bigger 

than a bath tub 

my bones begin to shiver 

'cause I'm aching to deliver 

this water that I must give her 

can I get some 

 

 [CHORUS:]  

down by the railway station 

people moving in a new direction 

take a ticket from who you can 

drive that train 

 

she was a black-tie bomb shell 

out of Bombay 

she was easy on the eyes 

so I had nothing to say 

she said take the water to the 

leprechaun man you got till the bell 

rings three, do you understand 

a little peice of me wants to go 

 

I don't know 

turn around what do I do 

I don't know 

 

ding dong ding that's the bell 

and I know you know I know 

I don't know you very well 

but if I did, I would groove 

and hit the ground running 

but I don't and I won't 

so you got another thing coming 

 

 [CHORUS]  

 

he kicked up the river  

with a flick of his wrist 

I popped him in the kisser 

'cause I couldn't resist 

I said to my side kick 

I'm up to my high wick 

and now I'm getting a little homesick 

but before I know it 

I'm going down this itty bitty river 

in a boat a little bigger  

than a bath tub 

my bones begin to shiver 

'cause I'm aching to deliver 

this water that I must giver her 

can I get some 

 

 [CHORUS]  

 

ride your train
